Hello arun,
Your questions answer is subjetive to your preferences. If you are good at solving lot of easy problems quickly and little poor at solving difficult problems, go for MAT. If you take time solving problems, but you get them finally, CMATs pattern may be more suitable for.

Let me elaborate

Both CMAT and MAT are aptitude tests for tier -2 or tier-3 business schools. They wont fetch you the best colleges. If you want the best go for CAT.

MAThas five sections. Each section consisting of 40 questions. So you will get 200 questions to solve within 150 minutes. Although you are supposed to pass in all five sections, one section GENERAL KNOWLEDGE , is not considered for final marking.

CMAThas four sections with 25 problems in each section and you get 180 minutes for solving them.

MAT is taken four times a year. So, need not worry if you missed the last one, another ones already on the way ;)

CMAT is held once a year, so you got to be attentive for the form release and submission dates.

Cheers !!
